The challenge of fortifying today’s students with 21st century skills is daunting.Technology is moving at an exponentially rapid pace and it offers unique opportunities for learning.Global ‘everything’ is a reality. Today’s students will change jobs 10 to 14 times by the time they reach 38 years of age and they will actually need to craft their own careers.* McAllen ISD responded to this ‘call to action in a way that captured national attention and is being emulated by districts across the state and country. We lead the way.

Please note: McAllen ISD student, teacher, alumni and staff photos are on-going and will be updated at least twice a year to showcase multiple campuses and the McAllen community at large. The McAllen Independent School District is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate against any applicant on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age or disability.

McAllen ISD adopted a Maintenance and Operations tax rate that will raise more taxes for Maintenance and Operations than last year's tax rate. While raising the Maintenance and Operations tax rate, the Board of Trustees simultaneously lowered the District's Debt Service tax rate in an amount equal to the increase on the Maintenance and Operations tax rate. As a result of the Board's combined actions, there will be no increase in the District's overall tax rate for the 2017-18 fiscal year.
